The former Liverpool man is certainly making waves at his boyhood club this season, scoring 6 goals so far and displaying a stark improvement in his overall play. Celta Vigo has always been a difficult fixture in the La Liga, and with Iago Aspas, they are definitely a substantial attacking threat this season.

Celta de Vigo, however, find themselves 11th in the league table, despite averaging 2 goals per match: Atletico Madrid, in comparison, average 1.5 goals per match.The team's lowly position in the standings is primarily due to their leaky defence, which has already conceded 17 goals and kept only one clean sheet so far this season.

Their difficulties at the back, however, haven't hindered Iago Aspas' goalscoring touch. Together with Emre Mor, Aspas has been responsible for most of Celta Vigo's attacking play this season, his best performance coming in a 5-2 drubbing of Las Palmas, in which he scored a scintillating hat-trick.

Celta Vigo make for an exciting team, and have been a part of several high scoring encounters this season. They definitely deserve better than they've had so far, but with Aspas in the team, it is safe to say that they will not be pushed around anytime soon.
